The rapid pace of change in financial markets, capital allocation pressures and an ever-changing regulatory landscape demands reliable, adaptable technology to keep up. As the leading global provider of multi-asset trading solutions, Calypso provides customers with a powerful and fully customizable platform which enables faster time to new markets, risk reduction and lower development costs.

In order to get the most out of the platform and maximize efficiency when configuring Calypso, it is important that you have a robust configuration process in place. Keeping track of changes—who did what, when, and why—is vital to ensure that nothing gets accidentally overwritten. This is challenging when there are multiple environments and workstreams.

Doing this on a manual basis can prove cost and resource prohibitive. With multiple developers working at once, coordination can naturally become very difficult, increasing the risk of manual mistakes.

The Accenture Configuration Tool for Calypso helps to solve all of this. It is a powerful, comprehensive and sophisticated end-to-end configuration management tool available for the platform. It provides completely automated version control, allowing users to easily compare environments to quickly spot specific changes and fixes, to track the progress of a change and to search across environments to see which configuration is in which environment.

The result is total visibility and the creation of full audit trails across the entire development and release cycle, from start to finish. The Accenture Configuration Tool for Calypso makes configuring Calypso as easy, efficient and straightforward as possible for all team members involved, from project and deployment managers through to developers and testers.

The Benefits

• Significant time and cost savings
